The villagers of Guanlou Village have been in a nervous mood for the past few days, waiting for the new rules to be promulgated by the new nobles. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

But after a few days, the villagers realized that the new lord had no intention of dealing with them at all.

In addition to renovating the mansion in full swing every day, the villagers only saw the young lord, who had to go to the Yellow River every day, stand on the bank and be in a quiet daze for a long time, and then return to the mansion.

Calm is bound to brew a storm.

With a sad heart, all the villagers waited for the young lord to announce the proportion of land tax to be paid this year.

Villager Wang Dazhui is the only person in Guanlou Village who is smiling now.

Every day, he takes his ugly mother-in-law and his ten-year-old baby to get up early and work hard at night.

Originally, a young butler of the Jue Mansion came with a few murderous guards, and when he came to the door for the first time, Wang Dazhui was almost scared to pee.

As a family that has been making tofu for generations in Guanlou Village, this is the first time to receive such a large order.

Every day, it is necessary to supply 100 catties of new tofu from Juefu.

When Wang Dazhui heard the young butler say the number, he fainted on the spot.

It's not an agitated fainting, it's a sad mood that is hard to control.

If a noble person like a lord wants to eat a few pieces of tofu from his own house, does he still need to pay? It's all about giving yourself face.

It is foreseeable that it will not be long before his own house will be completely bankrupt.

Wang Dazhui, who was woken up by cold water on the spot, sent the first batch of tofu to the Juefu early in the morning with a sad mood in the warning voice of the young housekeeper.

After all, the people do not fight with the officials, this is an ancestral example of comforting the people.

The more affluent the people, the weaker the bloodiness will be.

Although the saying that the poor mountains and bad waters produce the people, although it has a derogatory connotation, it is an unbreakable truth.

Therefore, as long as the people are rich, there will be very few rebellions.

The rulers of the Qin and Sui dynasties did not understand the principle of hiding wealth from the people, and oppressed the people without restrictions, so there were many civil riots in that period.

The Southern Song Dynasty should be the most prosperous period for the common people in all dynasties, so the blood of the people will be weakened, which is easy to be wiped out by barbaric foreigners.

When the people are poor, they will spontaneously overthrow those in power. When the people are rich, they are easy to lose their bloody spirit and are very easy to be taken advantage of by foreign enemies.

How to balance the relationship between the two is really the biggest issue facing those in power.

Guanlou Village is close to Jingshi, after all, it is the location of Gyeonggi for several generations of imperial courts. At the feet of the Son of Heaven, although the people lived in hardship, they were not starved to death. In addition, there is a large army of the imperial court entrenched in the vicinity all the year round, and the people here hardly have any sense of rebellion.

When Wang Dazhui went to deliver tofu to the Juefu for the first time, he had mixed feelings, thinking about escaping, and also thinking about living a day is a day.

After inspecting the texture of the tofu, the young housekeeper of the Jue Mansion said a few words in his mouth.

But he still threw down two pieces of money, which was considered a reward, and told him to continue to send it tomorrow.

Wang Dazhui was carrying two pieces of money in his arms, as if he was in a dream.

This was the first time he had seen a nobleman actually buy goods for his tenant farmer.

When I returned home, I asked my ugly lady to count the money before I was sure that I wasn't dreaming.

100 catties of tofu, two pieces of money, a sky-high price that I can't even imagine!

I used to sell tofu in the village and a few nearby villages, and I only saved two yuan a month.

Wang Dazhui's enthusiasm for delivering tofu to Juefu every day suddenly increased.

This month can have an income of 60 yuan, which is equivalent to the income of the previous year.

In the past few days, Wang Da Hammer has been walking with a jump.

Since some people are happy, of course there are also people who are irritable.

Wen is now in the living room where he is eating, and he is thundering.

"Stone, are you sure I'm a lord?" Wen pointed at the dishes on the garden table with his chopsticks and roared.

"San Lang, of course you are a lord, and you have a document from the imperial court to testify." Stone affirmed.

"Sir, sir, at the level of this meal, it is not as good as what we ate when Yan Shen was a common man."

Shi looked at the table full of food and said, "This meal is already very good." ”

"Feng Yi, Yi Qi, Jing Yuan, the three of you are commenting, can you still eat this kind of meal?" Wen asked the ladies sitting around the dinner table.

As for Zheng Zhutou, there is no need to ask for his opinion.

For this kind of eating method of men and women at the same table, regardless of dignity and inferiority, everyone has raised serious protests against Wen.

But they were all vetoed by Wen, and if they ate according to the current rules, they could only eat alone. This is not conducive to unity at all, and if the food is poisoned, it will only be you who will be poisoned, and you will suffer a lot. Therefore, Wen Qiang arrogantly announced that Wenfu's way of eating is to sit in groups.

"It's okay." The little nun Jingyuan pouted.

Tan Fengyi and Mei Yiqi just ate silently and didn't talk to each other, obviously they also had some opinions about this meal.

"It's okay, isn't it? That's good, Jingyuan, you will eat like this every day in the future, anyway, I can't stand it, sir. On this day, soybeans are accompanied by tofu in the morning, fried tofu with soybeans at noon, and stewed tofu with soybeans in the evening.

Stone, you just get me a plate of soybean sprouts, and I'll count you as a new dish for me. Smelling the anger, he threw the chopsticks in his hand on the table, preparing to go on a hunger strike in protest.

Shi said helplessly: "San Lang, we are very short of money now, in order to eliminate the bandits in Luzhong when Yan Shen was in Yanshen, we purchased three thousand yuan of gunpowder raw materials, that is because Yan Shen produces those raw materials locally, or it will cost more."

In addition to the expenses on the way to Kaifeng, especially the expenses in Kaifeng City, as well as the expenses in the Baihua Building, it took a lot of money to repair the mansion. ”

Wen said depressedly: "Baihualou, I remember that I didn't spend any money?" ”

"San Lang, when you went to Tianxiang Garden, the old bustard came to receive a gift from us for a hundred times."

Wen immediately jumped up from the chair: "Damn, you guys are stupid, really give?" What kind of woman can be worth a hundred times when she meets her, which is enough for the average fan sister to spend ten times overnight. ”

Tan Fengyi snorted beside her: "You know this very well." ”

Wen coughed embarrassedly and said, "I'm just a metaphor, how do I know the specific price." ”

"San Lang, the old bustard said that the meeting gift of the little lady Xie should be at least 10,000 yuan. But we couldn't get it out, so we looted the last hundred of our bodies before letting us go. Stone added.

Wen smiled bitterly and said: "When you see each other, you have to go through everything, this little lady Xie is really valuable." ”

"No, since we have no money, we still eat meat every day on the way to Kaifeng, and we are about to vomit me, is there such a waste of money? Now that I have no money, I change to a vegetarian diet every day. Smell the air.

"San Lang, along the way, we didn't spend much money on meals provided by the merchants who accompanied the group, and those merchants were also the premiums given to us in disguise."

Wen sighed and said: "Now there are no merchants to eat, so we have to eat our own, right?" .......... stones, how much money we have left. ”

Shi Shi said with a sneering face: "Seventy-four times." ”

After hearing the stone's answer, he was speechless for a long time: ".........."

This is really angry with my own rhythm, now that I am a lord, I am even poorer than when I was a common man. Less than 100 yuan of money has to feed hundreds of people, and in a place like the gold cave near Jingshi, they will be starved to death every minute.
